Cave Story. What a fresh new game. Wait a sec. It isn’t new? What do you mean? When did it come out? 2004? What?! How did I miss this gem?

It’s all the best of 8-bitness without having the annoyance of blowing on NES carts. What is a home-brew homage to many different games, including Metroid and a long-lost Sierra game, Zeliard, brings to the modern age a bit of that nostalgia for simpler times. It feels 8-bit, but it isn’t quite as rough around the edges.

Infendo has a really nice preview of sorts on the upcoming Kirby title for the DS that was on display at E3 this year. Nice compilation of all the news that could be found on what this game will entail.
